Update

Well, pretty much good news on most levels-imo. First off my little

girls seem to be unaware of their Mothers apparent suicide

attempt (she still wont directly say thats what happened), which is

good. They wouldnt understand this and no reason for them to

know at this time. My X and her new spouse have beem in marriage

counciling for a few months and not going well. After this episode

she has been in a different type of counciling/therapy which revieled

a LOT!

At this point the diagnosis is they are going to treat 3 different problems,

she has OCD-obsesive compulsive disorder, ADD/ADHD attention defecit

disorder/attention defecit hyperactivity disorder and PTSD post traumatic

syndrome disorder. The first 2 they are already treating with Valium and Paxil

which she told me today are working well. Next month they will start her on

another medication for the PTSD and see how they interact together. Hopefully

this will keep her in check and more stable, I feel bad for her and how this has

affected her present relationship but I'm optomistic about the future for them.

 

I always knew she was a great person even though her past was pretty rough, I

 thought most of it was behind her and admired her for overcoming it(I thought).

Thats where the PTSD gets recognized, she was molested at age 11 by her Uncle

that then went and raped her Grandmother-stabbed her 7 times and left her for dead.

The Grandmother survived(mostly) the Uncle went to jail but was released about

3 years ago, that really sucks! At the same age 11 she was introduced by her parents

 to cocaine which she dabbled with until about 18/19-you can actually see some

 under her nose in her senior picture.

She has always had my full support and still does, she's really a great Mother and very

protective. I will step in though if any of her conditions cause an unfit situation for my girls.

 

On the brighter side, our 20 year old Kindra is getting married Nov. 15th, she's a very happy girl!

I hope everything else goes positive. Hang in there.

Dude, you know I'm here. You wanna decompress, we can sit at the bar and watch the sun go down over the Pacific while the hotties stroll by on the strand....

You got my digits. Grats on the wedding!

Thanks everyone, I'm pretty ok with the drama and such-but thanks for the concern. Its like a walk in the park compared to the last 6 months of my sinking marriage.

Hey River, sorry to hear things aren't so great on your end. You've always been a great friend to me when things weren't so good on this end. My prays are with you and your family. I know things will work out, just because good things happen to good people and your one of the best. Later Brother.
